The Mount Vernon School

Amazing school, one thing they could improve on is their food is for adoults.

It takes a village to raise our children and we are so fortunate to have the MVPS family as an integral part of our village. MVPS cultivates a community of academic success but also empowers students to be engaged leaders who will leave an indelible mark on the world. Students are not molded to the culture of the school; rather, the school reflects the beautiful tapestry of talents and passions of its students. MVPS is cultivating a generation of young people who can lead with compassion and serve with humility. We are so proud to be a part of this extraordinary extended family.

This school is a great place. The education is phenomenal, the teachers are nice, and the students there are great. The expectations of this school is high, and this will change the student. My family has struggled to pay the tuition in the 3 years I have been here, but that is the only problem I have had with this school. I will definitely miss this school and everything about it as I move to a different school.

I have been at this school for 2 years and really enjoy it. MVPS displays affection and love to all of their students. MVPS has a lot of great new programs that make me excel in all my classes. I love all the teachers and can't wait for the next year.

My son has been at MVPS for the past seven years. While at times I admit there have been less-than-perfect moments, overall I have to say we are thrilled with the education that he is getting there. He is truly being prepared for college and more importantly for the 21st century. The teachers are excellent, the academics challenging and sports have been thoroughly rewarding. He is in 7th grade now with small class sizes and the relationships he has with his teachers are phenomenal- relationships that could not happen at a larger school. I would like to address a concern in a previous, negative review. My husband and I make a lot of sacrifices to be able to afford the tuition here. We are not huge financial contributors to the various other funds that the school requests above and beyond tuition. We do what we are able and give of our time and energy as we can. Never once in 7 years have we felt that our son has had any less an education than the families who are able to donate on a grander scale. Never. This school might not be for all students, but it is in our opinion one of the finest options available in Atlanta. And we are grateful that our son has the opportunity to attend and is being given an unbelievably strong foundation for his future.
